"As expected, this is no ordinary butler." KIKI landed from the air and stood next to Lin Xian.
Before KIKI finished speaking, Grace had already stood up from the thick smoke, the holographic projection on her head flickering incessantly, quickly forming the appearance of Chu Yan once again, her tone remaining cold and monotonous.
"You have already agreed to the negotiation and acquired the terms. Please leave imdiately. The connection between the Zero Elent Hive and the mycelial roots of the Heavenly Mushroom Tower, if catches fire, will lead to an uncontrollable explosion. Based on calculations, your survival rate is 0%."
It seed like the impact from Ning Jing’s punch from earlier had an effect, causing Grace’s facial protective shell to dent slightly and crack. However, both Lin Xian and Ning Jing frowned at this sight; Lin Xian knew the power of Ning Jing, the Powerful Queen’s punch, was profound enough to crush the head of a Winged Demon, yet it couldn’t cause significant damage to this robot’s face. The hardness of this material must be terrifying!
The chanical light in Lin Xian’s eyes gradually dimd. Earlier, he had already controlled all the power components of Grace’s body, leaving only the most complex quantum computer brain control core. He tried probing it, and just upon touching it, the chanical Scan felt like a stone dropped into the sea, there was a sense of powerlessness.
Indeed, the most powerful productivity is not the engine but the processor. Lin Xian sighed in his heart, but being able to control all of Grace’s power components ant the threat from this robot had diminished significantly. He was now very curious about the manufacturing technology of this robot, as it seed not to be a product of the interstellar army.
"Tell your basic Protocol 4, and I will leave." Lin Xian knew the people in those survival pods were all connected to the mycelial roots, so he deliberately let Brother Huo make a move to test it out. Seeing Grace’s reaction, he imdiately spoke.
Grace chanically turned her head, seed to look at Lin Xian with a hint of confusion, and said:
"Protocol 4, when all defensive asures of the Zero Elent Center fail and the invader is human, activate the ’Compromise’ program, provide all supplies through negotiation, to secure survival chances for Deep Red mbers."
"Brother Lin, it seems your guess was correct." Lu Xingchen clapped and walked over at this mont.
"The Compromise program, it’s essentially the final plea for rcy, isn’t it?" Ding Junyi spoke, "The security here is so tight, it was definitely her who initiated the attack on us outside earlier, but the doors and passages with strict protection here were directly resolved by your chanical superpower, and from the intelligent brain’s judgnt, there are no other ways to stop us, so she has no other choice."
Lin Xian nodded: "Being cautious never hurts, it seems this is likely a secret convalescence ho. Let’s not waste ti, Sister Ning, Ah Bai, Luo Yang."
He looked at Ning Jing: "We will split into two or three groups. The three of you take that transport train along this route to inspect, KIKI and Brother Huo, you’ll go up from the outside through the backup passage entrance, return to the train and make the Joint Train reverse and then enter through the freight station entrance, move quickly to leave Yijin City, otherwise, we can only hide underground and wait for the next mycelial activation to leave. Staying in Extre Night for 30 hours, anything can happen. Let’s get out of here early to avoid long nights fraught with dreams."
Ning Jing nodded: "Alright, let’s do it this way!"
"And what about you?" KIKI couldn’t help but ask upon hearing Lin Xian’s arrangent.
"Director Ding and I will stay here, keeping an eye on this Grace, so we can provide support for you." Lin Xian said.
The situation of this underground facility and this intelligent robot butler with a mysterious woman’s face made Lin Xian uneasy, so he planned to stay here, on one hand, to scan so available equipnt here, and on the other hand, to use his chanical superpower to subdue Grace and see how he could ’kidnap’ this butler onto the Infinity.
Hearing this, KIKI solemnly nodded: "Alright, then be careful, I will go find Sister Chen and the others imdiately."
After setting the plan, Ning Jing took Ah Bai and Luo Yang and set off imdiately. Ning Jing took the decoder to solve the problem of the secret track pathway first, then confirm the location of the permanent warehouse along the way, if the Joint Fleet is trapped underground, these warehouses could just be used for supplies.
anwhile, KIKI and Brother Huo, guided by Grace, took a special elevator all the way up, unlike before when they descended to the fifth underground floor in the pharmaceutical group, the elevator ascended a dozen floors before reaching the surface, where a circular automatic door above slowly opened, letting down a large amount of sand. As the elevator rose, only then did the two of them realize this turned out to be the interior of a bank’s vault.
But the vault was a scene of chaos, with decaying banknotes and mycelium sludge mingled together, even the bolts of the vault door had been pried away, leaving scattered banknotes ignored by anyone.
KIKI put up a Telekinesis Shield and directly took Brother Huo out of the bank, flying through an expanse of brownish-yellow spore fog, only to see a yellowish hue upon entering the street.
"Such dense spore fog!"
"Yijin Bank..." KIKI glanced at the bank’s dilapidated sign then looked at the map on her phone and said: "This should be Central Square, the city center of Yijin. I rember there should be a very tall TV observation tower here."
Seeing the pervasive mist, KIKI’s face was filled with worry, to get a clearer view, she took Lu Xingchen, soared up high, and rushed into the sky. As the surrounding buildings disappeared, a towering black silhouette of a high tower appeared in sight.
KIKI flew straight over but as the two of them got closer, sensed more oddities.
